We study classes of atomic models At_T of a countable, complete first-order theory T . We prove that if At_T is not pcl-small, i.e., there is an atomic model N that realizes uncountably many types over pcl(a) for some finite tuple a from N,…
We deal with stability theory for ``reasonable'' non-elementary classes without any remanents of compactness (like: above Hanf number or definable by L_{omega_1, omega}).
A first-order structure $\mathfrak{A}$ is called monadically stable iff every expansion of $\mathfrak{A}$ by unary predicates is stable. In this article we give a classification of the class $\mathcal{M}$ of $\omega$-categorical monadically…
We introduce the notion of pseudo-algebraicity to study atomic models of first order theories (equivalently models of a complete sentence of $L_{\omega_1,\omega}$. Theorem: Let $T$ be any complete first-order theory in a countable language…
We prove a strong non-structure theorem for a class of metric structures with an unstable pair of formulae. As a consequence, we show that weak categoricity (that is, categoricity up to isomorphisms and not isometries) implies several…
We begin a systematic development of structure theory for a first order theory, which is stable over a monadic predicate. We show that stability over a predicate implies quantifier free definability of types over stable sets, introduce an…
We study abstract elementary classes (AECs) that, in $\aleph_0$, have amalgamation, joint embedding, no maximal models and are stable (in terms of the number of orbital types). Assuming a locality property for types, we prove that such…
A comma category, exemplified in algebraic geometry by coherent systems, combines two categories over a third through morphisms between their objects. We establish sufficient conditions for it to be abelian, compute its Grothendieck group,…
Suppose L is a relational language and P in L is a unary predicate. If M is an L-structure then P(M) is the L-structure formed as the substructure of M with domain {a: M models P(a)}. Now suppose T is a complete first order theory in L with…
We initiate a systematic investigation of the abstract elementary classes that have amalgamation, satisfy tameness (a locality property for orbital types), and are stable (in terms of the number of orbital types) in some cardinal. Assuming…
Given a cover $\mathbb{U}$ of a family of smooth complex algebraic varieties, we associate with it a class $\mathcal{U},$ containing $\mathbb{U}$, of structures locally definable in an o-minimal expansion of the reals. We prove that the…
Our aim is to prove that if T is a complete first order theory, which is not superstable (no knowledge on this notion is required), included in a theory T_1 then for any lambda > |T_1| there are 2^lambda models of T_1 such that for any two…
For any smooth projective variety $X$ of dimension $n$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$ with $\mu(\Omega^1_X)>0$. If ${\rm T}^{\ell}(\Omega^1_X)$ ($0<\ell<n(p-1)$) are semi-stable, then the sheaf $B^1_X$ of…
We prove the consistency result from the title. By forcing we construct a model of g=aleph_1, b=cf(Sym(omega))=aleph_2.
We prove that each \omega-categorical, generically stable group is solvable-by-finite.
We prove stability for a class of heterogeneous catalysis models in the $L_p$-setting. We consider a setting in a finite three-dimensional pore of cylinder-like geometry, with the lateral walls acting as a catalytic surface. Under a…
We develop a comprehensive theory of the stable representation categories of several sequences of groups, including the classical and symmetric groups, and their relation to the unstable categories. An important component of this theory is…
There are many results in the literature where superstablity-like independence notions, without any categoricity assumptions, have been used to show the existence of larger models. In this paper we show that \emph{stability} is enough to…
We study when the stable category of an abelian category modulo a full additive subcategory is balanced and, in case the subcategory is functorially finite, we study a weak version of balance. Precise necessary and sufficient conditions are…
Shelah has provided sufficient conditions for an $L_{\omega_1, \omega}$-sentence $\psi$ to have arbitrarily large models and for a Morley-like theorem to hold of $\psi$. These conditions involve structural and set-theoretic assumptions on…
